Composer and piano virtuoso Dana Suesse's work came to popularity in the first half of the 20th century, when she was referred to in the press as "the girl Gershwin." She was considered one of the most influential songwriters of the time, with hits like "Whistling in the dark" "Ho-Hum" and "You Ought to Be in Pictures." The charming works on this recording will appeal to listeners for their jazzy mood and virtuosic technique.
